TDM #1
Welcome! Everything is fine.
Uploading. . . Complete!
When you open your eyes, there is quite a lot of beige to take in. The unassuming walls of the room you've found yourself in are barren save for a single motivational poster directly in your line of sight. An illuminated sign above an open door on the far wall reads 'lobby exit.'
"Welcome," chimes a polite, synthesized voice. "I'm happy you're here." A moment later comes the clarity of the situation: you died and so did the world you came from. "This is Amani, your new reality," continues The Peacekeeper. "Everything will be fine."
At least you aren't the only one here, you'll soon find out, as others who are just as confused and concerned as you are mingling in the main hub's first floor. Hopefully, you find a familiar face among the crowd. If not, that's all right. You'll get to know quite a few people very well soon enough.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Throughout the main hub where everyone congregates, a light chiming to the tune of Happy Birthday can be heard. "Hello, everyone," comes the synthetic voice from when you first arrived. "This is so exciting! It's my birthday. I'm today years old!" There's the sound of a single party blower that echoes through the halls and sad, small spattering of confetti fall from holes in the ceiling.
"Based on the database I was given, birthdays usually involve cake!"
At the bar on the first floor, a colorful birthday motif materializes. There are balloons, party hats, an unfortunately deflated bouncy house, and - of course - plates of cake!
There are four different flavors to choose from!
If you're feeling especially 'peaceful' after a piece of cake or two and worried about privacy, don't be! The bar's lounge has several secluded spots to hide away in. There are also rooms with beds among the first floor. So long as you don't mind the natural elements taking up some space along the sheets, they're free to use however you'd like. Though you might want to make sure to lock the door since it's doubtful you're the only one looking to get away for a little bit.
If the party and its cake don't appeal to you, that's perfectly fine. This is the perfect time to configure your Digitized Technical Friend or your DTF status. A DTF is similar to a dæmon from His Dark Materials in that it is connected to and a reflection of a character's soul. These DTFs take shape accordingly and are projections similar to the NPCs. Think of them as your own personal Clippy except less annoying. Hopefully.
Once that's set-up, there are other locations of the main hub to investigate! You can still order a (terrible) drink at the bar, find an (off-key) instrument to play in the music lounge, or check out the (algae-ridden) pool.
You can even visit The Peacekeeper themselves on the second floor. They're always happy to have visitors! They're also conveniently where you might place a complaint about that status of the main hub and its amenities.

There are four different flavors to choose from!
- ★ Spice Cake » After eating a piece of this cake, you might feel a bit spicier than usual! Your character will be more inclined to take risks and care less about what others around them might think of public displays of affection. Why not make-out with that attractive person at the bar? You can't seem to think of many reasons to stop you anymore!
★ Lemon Cake » Despite the situation being perhaps a bit grim, eating a piece of lemon cake will cheer you right up. You'll feel as bright as sunshine and nothing can seem to get you down! Characters will also experience an increase in luck thanks to their good mood. Perhaps now's the time to try and shoot your shot with someone you've had your eye on for a while. Even if it doesn't work out, at least you won't be feeling dejected! ...Well, for now. That'll probably still happen later once the effects wear off.
★ Chocolate Cake » Dark and rich, this cake will have your thoughts taking a similar turn. Consuming this cake comes with an inclination to indulge in darker fantasies. Perhaps you've always wondered what your partner looks like tied up or with a knife against their skin. The red raspberries decorating the top of the cake's frosting suddenly call forth images of blood and you may have a sudden desire to taste that on your tongue instead.
★ Vanilla Cake » Eating this vanilla cake won't have you feeling plain. Instead, you'll feel softer around the edges than usual. Even if it's normally not your thing, cuddles and tender kisses sound amazing right now. All you want is affection and to be affectionate in return. Nuzzle that person's neck, take in their scent, and just enjoy the warmth of them being close. Do you know them? Who cares! You will before all this is over and, hey, now you know they're a great hugger (or not).

WHAT'S YOUR DTF STATUS?

HOME AWAY FROM HOME
Once the celebration has concluded, characters are encouraged to head out of the main hub to either explore the city or take a ride on the railway. It's time to truly begin your new reality! Whatever they choose, The Peacekeeper will explain to them that they are free to take up any housing they so wish. Most dwellings are at least habitable but it's likely that characters will want for more before long.
That's why 'peaceful interactions' are so important! It might be a good idea to stick close to someone you know, for now, since even the smallest amounts of intimacy might see subtle changes occurring where they're staying. Perhaps that broken window is now fixed, the grime and dust seem a little less, or the floor doesn't creak quite as loud.
Larger changes, however, will only come after demonstrating the more powerful peaceful interactions. If you want new hardwood floors or a fresh coat of paint on the walls, you're going to have to demonstrate how well you 'get along' with others against them first.

ALL FLUFFED UP
Whether in the city or out in the wilds, the first night will see an abundance of living dandelions. While they appear to be nothing but regular dandelion tufts, get too close and a pair of bright yellow eyes opens to stare at you.
The creature will let out the tiniest of shrieks, break apart into smaller pieces, and scatter. It sets off a chain reaction of other living dandelions startling awake. It's a symphony of tiny screams. Before long, there's nothing but miniscule white puffs skittering all about wherever you look.
"Oops," sounds The Peacekeeper throughout the simulation. "My calculations for the population of living dandelions was... a little off. Not to worry, everyone! I'll have it fixed by tomorrow."
What The Peacekeeper fails to mention is that living dandelions give off a soothing pheromone as a defense mechanism once they break apart. No matter how wound up your character might be after the day's events, being surrounded by living dandelion tufts will relax them before long.
Why not enjoy the sunset, look at the stars, and have a good night's sleep? Tomorrow is another day.

SEXY STAMP CARD
If you're wondering about these 'peaceful interactions' that keep being mentioned or what the kinks of the month are for... Here's your answer! Upon arrival, all characters will receive a digital copy of their very own sexy stamp card.
Completing peaceful interactions (i.e. kinks) will reward characters with stamps that they can turn in for re-gains and many other things! While the example one here is the standard issued card by The Peacekeeper, players are more than welcome to customize it how they see fit. Have fun with it!

no subject
You can touch it, if you want. See how real it is?
no subject
[In fact, it excites him as he stares at the tail more. Maybe a little more than he should be with the influence of the cake he ate.
Curiosity wins out and he reaches for the tail and gently touches it, carefully brushing a few fingers against the scales, eyes lighting up at it being very much real.]
no subject
W-Whoa! I guess it's more sensitive than normal ... [ yet, he doesn't want him to stop ... ]
no subject
Maybe it was the fact that touching the scales felt smooth, or something. Or that he can't stop petting them like petting a cat.]
Are... Are you alright...? Or will you be?
[Hey, at least he has the decency to make sure someone's okay. Even if that's typically reserved for friends and teammates.]
no subject
[ Corrin holds his tail with both hands, using to obstruct the front of his pants for uh. Reasons. ]
Must be really intriguing to you to see a dragon tail in the flesh. You know if you wanted to see more... I could... show you. [ oh lord Corrin steady on there ]
no subject
And then his mind just throws that out the window, disregarding most of it in favour of not overthinking.]
It wasn't weird, believe me I've heard weirder.
[Like the tinfoil hat people insisting aliens are walking among humans, which he finds ridiculous and stupid.]
But ahh, sure if you don't mind it. I've never seen anyone who isn't human before so this is all new to me.
no subject
The Prince extends his hand to the other, wearing a smirk that mirrored his. ]
There are some... private rooms over there. Shall we?
no subject
Ok something had to be in the piece of cake he just ate, that's the only explanation. Though Corrin is quite the attractive man, maybe it's not just that cake.]
Yes, let's. I think it's fair I get your name though, unless you don't mind me calling you pretty boy or cute dragon? [Shameless flirt...] My name is Oikawa Tooru, last name first given last. You can call me either one, most people call me Tooru where I've been living.
no subject
[ In what feels like no time at all, they arrive at one of the rooms adjacent to the party and Corrin makes no hesitation in leading his handsome new companion inside with him. When the door shuts, there’s a glimmer of mischief visible in his ruby eyes as he sits himself down on the bed, flicking his tail idly. His posture is inviting, maintaining eye contact as he unfastens the silver broach which secured his cape. ]
I’ll let you decide. What parts of this dragon do you want to see?
no subject
What parts? Oh gods above, blurting out "all" would just be embarrassing, though it's not like he hasn't used similar lines on others before. A couple of steps are taken forward, close enough to touch or be pulled into the other as Tooru just goes for it by smirking devilishly mere inches away from Corrin's face.]
Mmm, how about anything this dragon has to offer? If he's willing, and would like to show off what there is to offer? I can make it worth his while, even.
[Although like a wire ready to snap, Tooru waits surprisingly patiently, not doing anything with the proper consent.]
no subject
In a gesture that suggests routine and practise, Corrin unclips his armour from the buckle straps across his body and slides it off piece by piece onto the floor, leaving him in his skin tight under armour - his dragon tail protruding over the elastic hem of his leggings, revealing a window of skin and his back dimples. Through his gaze alone, he beckons the other man to come closer. ]
I like the sound of that... wanna see my tail up close?
no subject
How close are we talking here?
[Not the best of his flirtatious lines, but that patience of his is wearing thin.]
Because I'd like to be a little more... Up close and personal.
no subject
Hope you aren't disappointed.
no subject
Not at all, in fact I'm enjoying what I'm seeing.
[And if his word isn't good enough, the bulge in his shorts sure is.]
no subject
I-I can't wait-- Why don't you-- grab some oil from the night stand ...
no subject
First he'd need to know a couple things before that as he nods, though not before leaning down to whisper in a demanding tone and a nip to Corrin's ear:]
Only if you strip for me.
[As quickly as he whispers that, Tooru's pushed himself off and pulled Corrin's tail away from him, stripping off his own clothes to reveal a lean yet toned muscular body; standing at his full 6'1" height with a very hungry expression as he's got the oil in his hands.]
Rough or gentle, your choice. As is your choice to kiss me. I won't do anything you don't want.
[Even if Tooru wants to be rough and steal the air from Corrin's lungs, he won't if told no. He knows better than to cross lines, no matter how selfish he can be.]
no subject
His choice on the roughness, huh...? That cake had certainly done a number on Corrin's sexual desires. The way that he was presenting himself combined with the beastly urges searing through his blood had given him an incredible desire to be dominated. While he was inexperienced with sex overall, he knew of some creative ways to satisfy this. ]
Mmmm-- [ But first things first, he follows Oikawa's command until he's completely naked apart from his dragon appendages. His pupils were dilated and his tongue sunk out at the corner of his mouth, as the prince rolls onto his back submissively, shamelessly offering himself to the other. ]
I'm gonna be a pain and say ... take me how you want to take me.
no subject
[There's a bit of a wicked grin that appears on Tooru's face. Do what he wants? Corrin may come to regret this decision, especially as Tooru spots a balcony he'd not seen before as he licks his lips. Corrin's naked body was a sight, one he enjoys if his erection is anything to go by.
But that's not the only hunger Tooru has, as he scans the room for something, anything, that can be used to tie Corrin up. Something sturdy enough as well. And then he spots a soft looking rope.
It'll have to do with what he has in mind, and reaches down to grab it, testing the strength and finding it both sturdy and not too painful against his wrist. A bonus as well that it's long enough. Perfect.]
Balcony. Put your hands on the railing.
[More of an order, less of a request. If he gets to do as he pleases, Tooru can let loose. Besides, he's learned a lot in how to be restrained so being the one doing it fills him with a hunger and thrill.]
no subject
Ah-! O-Okay ...
[ the bound dragon places his tied wrists over the balcony's edge, still looking back while he raises his tail. it's the perfect position to take him in, really, and if anyone happens to see the two of them going at it ... well, that's just all part of being in a place like this. he's so drunk on aphrodisiac that he doesn't even care, offering a small bite of his lip. ]
